Likewise and thanks Lund. But I would disagree, your newsletter looks great!

Hi everyone!
I’m Andre, I’m 25 and am currently living in Ireland. I found the EA community after reading the book The Life You Can Save, which resonated strongly with me! So much so that I’m currently reconsidering my plans and will possibly change careers to something with a positive impact (I currently work in the assisted/​autonomous driving industry). I’ve been learning about the EA movement every since I found out about it, and I’m looking forward to the next session of the EA Introductory Program and to meeting people in the community.
A fun fact about me is that I actually come from a small Portuguese island in the Atlantic. From my childhood home it would take me 15 minutes to either get to the sea or to get lost in a mountain—I think that because of this, I now love the natural world.
Anyway, looking forward to learning more about the community and meeting some of you :D
Hey Vasco, many thanks for the warm welcome! I’ll make sure to join you whenever I’m back in Lisbon :)
I’m from Madeira, the best of all the islands (totally unbiased opinion!). Have you been?
